Design, estimation, and prediction of computer experiments with applications to spatial data

As computer experiments are widely used in engineering and various other fields of science and technology, stochastic modeling and statistical analysis have been introduced to handle their outputs. Since in certain computer experiments or physical phenomena, measurement error should not be neglected, a model that incorporates measurement error is introduced and applied to three real data sets arising from a spatial network of monitoring sites and from the mining industry. For some special covariance structures, a consistent estimator is also constructed to estimate the error variance.
